- Inappropriate fuel which produces high temperatures.
- Incorrectly closed door.
WARNING!
During the operation of the stove, the ash pan door should remain closed.
An uncontrolled air intake could produce over-firing which may damage the enamel.
STOVES WITH MAJOLICA ENAMEL
VERY IMPORTANT!
It is normal for slight cracks to appear in the enamel of Majolica enamelled stoves which give
the product its characteristic appearance.
However, as a result of uncontrolled overheating, these cracks caused by the dilatation
difference between the cast iron and the Majolica enamel with vitreous components, may
produced an undesirable release of enamel.
To avoid this inconvenience, control combustion and never overheat.
INDUSTRIAS HERGÓM S.A. accepts no liability for the deterioration of the enamel of the
stove due to a failure to follow these instructions.
Your stove is an appliance that is subject to extreme temperatures and to the corrosive effect
of combustion residues. Its regular maintenance is essential for a longer duration and
optimum use of the stove. For this purpose, we recommend that the following controls are
regularly performed.
2.2.1 – DURING THE SEASON OF USE
a) Visually inspect the chimney. Clean the soot and tar if they have begun to build up
on the internal walls of the stove.
b) Check whether the doors close hermetically; adjust them as required.
2.2.2 – AT THE END OF THE SEASON
a) Inspect and clean the chimney.
b) Vacuum the interior of your stove and inspect it.
The soot and the tar (creosote) which accumulates on the walls of the stove reduce its
performance.
c) Inspect the door gaskets. These should be replaced when they do not close
perfectly.
d) For painted stoves, repaint the cast iron parts if necessary. Use heat resistant paint
for this purpose.
